We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment is perfect for a couple, with a separate bedroom, full bath, kitchenette and sitting room with TV. But the best part is the fabulous garden/wooded hillside surrounding the apartment. The owners are helpful and friendly while respectful of privacy. It really is an urban oasis just 10 mins from downtown Portland. Highly recommended.

Liked best:The location- really in the woods, but minutes from downtown

Liked least:Booking (not fully automated) and return of deposit- glich in your system required me to chase down my deposit. Don't think that it was the owners fault.

We spent a week in Hillsdale at the great little 1 bedroom retreat on the hill close to the city of Portland. It is not a walk friendly spot but once you get settled, it is easy to not want to leave. Never spent time in the NE section and Hillsdale is close to some great walking trails and parks. The hosts were so great and offered to help out in many nice ways. We really enjoyed them. It is pretty small and there are amenities like a small kitchenette and a few good grocery stores and restaurants at the bottom of the hill.

The property entry is through a garden setting in a nicely located neighborhood. It is an artist home and small touches and conveniences are thoughtfully considered; everything from tea bags to maps and internet access.

This was actually a repeat visit for me and will certainly be my first Portland location to check for future stays . I highly recommend a stay be it for a day or a month.

After traveling around the Pacific Northwest, camping and staying at hotels, we were delighted to find this very quiet place to rest. Who would have thought that a vacation would be so tiring? Anyway, we were ready to kick back and relax, catch up on a bit of family and work needs, and yet did not want to deal with the hustle of another hotel. So we landed here. And what a WONDERFUL choice. Carol and Arnie really made us feel welcome, and at the same time, we hardly every saw them.

The apartment has a separate bedroom, which was excellent because I wanted to stay up and watch TV while she wanted to relax and read. We could easily walk down to several nice places to eat, and we even took the public transit down to the art museum and a night out at the theatre.

We are definitely coming back here when we return to Portland.
